3*x+6*90=5(90+x)
\n" ); document.write( "3*x+540=450+0.05x
\n" ); document.write( "3x-5x=450-540
\n" ); document.write( "-2x=-90
\n" ); document.write( "x=45 lbs of $3 is added to 90 lbs of $6 to get 135 lbs at $5
\n" ); document.write( "check
\n" ); document.write( "3*45+6*90=5(90+45)
\n" ); document.write( "135+540=5(135)
